PDLIM1 inhibits cell migration and invasion in diabetic retinopathy via negatively regulating Wnt3a.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The injury of vascular endothelial cells is a crucial factor in the development of diabetic retinopathy (DR). PDLIM1 (a member of the PDZ and LIM protein family) has been reported to exert an essential function in vascular diseases. This study aimed to elucidate the role of PDLIM1 on retinal vascular endothelial cells in DR. Immunofluorescence staining was used to localize the expression of PDLIM1 in the mouse retina. In some tumor diseases, PDLIM1 has been reported to play a key role in regulating the Wnt pathway. However, no in-depth reports have been found in DR. Retinal capillary endothelial cells (RCECs) were treated with high-glucose and high-lipid (HG/HL) culture medium, and siRNA transfection to investigate the role of PDLIM1 in DR. PDLIM1 and Wnt3a expression was confirmed by qRT-PCR and western blotting. Flow cytometry, Transwell assay, and scratch assay were used to test the ability of cell apoptosis, migration, and invasion. PDLIM1 was mainly expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), ganglion cell layer (GCL), inner plexus layer (IPL), and outer plexus layer (OPL). HG/HL increased Wnt3a levels and promoted cell's ability of apoptosis, migration, and invasion, which were reversed by the knockdown of PDLIM1. PDLIM1 was found to play a protective role in diabetic retinopathy by counter-regulating Wnt3a. PDLIM1 ameliorates cell apoptosis, migration, and invasion by negatively regulating Wnt3a in RCECs of DR, which suggests that PDLIM1 might be a promising therapeutic target for DR treatment.
